I’m all here for the strangest and most impressive ships that can possibly be found. We’ll always have plenty of sailboats, tugboats, etc, to go around. It’s the welcomed, rare occasions when we see a ship that is so bizarre it stops us in our tracks. If this collective spectacle gets you going, don’t forget that there are tons of otherworldly kinds of strange vehicles out and about as well. It’s a wild world that we live in, indeed.
